YAMJ to Mede8er Beta pre-release

[MarioB]

@ auren
Try to map network drive from your NAS...

@ButlerPeter
I have tried Y2M on different machine with 1280x1024 resolution, and the results are the same. The about.jpg have scroll bars like in my previous attachment....

Hi MarioB

I tried your skin. Very nice!

If you change the Height to 727 as per attached it takes away the scroll bars. For ref my screen res is 1680 x 1050

Hi MarioB,
nice skin!!
Only thing is I would like to increase the font size, is there any easy way for me to do that. I take it I would have to mod one of the xsl files but I don't know exactly which one or what setting to change.
I had to change the height to 758 to get rid of the scroll bars using a screen resolution of 1920 x 1080 on my monitor.

Cheers

This is quite bizarre. The only time I've had scrollbars on the images was with a very early version of Y2M.

I haven't had them appear on any of my images. But, that said, I've not yet trie MarioB's modified skin.

Has anybody got scrollbars appearing that is using a different skin?


Update:-

I've now had a chance to try MarioB's skin and it is something (not sure exactly what at this stage) within the skin that is causing the problem, which explains why I've not seen it before.

Good news is I have modified Y2M to compensate and all seems good.

I get scroll bars with the standard (default) Yamj skin as soon as I reduce either the height or width in yamj to mede8er from 1280 x 720, but not if I leave the settings as 1280 x 720. As I say, with MarioB's skin I need to increase the height to 758 to get rid of the scroll bars. IMO it would be nice to be able to reduce the size settings without the scroll bars appearing, effectively being able to crop slightly to get a better fit on screen.

Guys I'm glad that you like my skin (it's actually Aeon skin with mods)
Shamus, i didn't tried to change font size, and to be honest i don't know exactly which .xls file to modify. You should find somewhere font attributes (font type, size, color ect...) for plot, actors ...
Cheers

Font sizes are in the exportdetails_item_popcorn.css file in the HTML folder of the skin.

@ MarioB

Thanks. Will try that.

This looks to be a very neat piece of software.

I've been asked a couple of times if YAMJ can produce PNG files for players without HTML capability, so I might point them in this direction

Let me know if there are any issues and I'll try and help out.

Firstly thanks to all for putting together an awesome solution for the Mede8er :-)

I do have one question though (and I have searched high and low for an answer....) :

Whats the point of the "folder.jpg" ?  It was my anticipation that it was so the move cover could used instead of the naff standard folder icon, to make the whole experience much more graphical, but it doesn't.... so begs the question, whats it for ? :-)

I'm using the modified MarioB's skin and the whole thing looks Fantastic so well done on the about.jpg creation....

This is all good , nice skin so being as i know a little about YAMJ (i have a eGreat) i might have a look at some other skins

A question i would like to know is this YAMJ is good for when you browse the HDD or network folder but like the eGreat can we not have the mede8er recognise the HTML files so we can open up the entire movie collection this would be a worthy task for someone .

Een voorbeeld voor de Nederlanders hier.

Ik heb hiervoor gebruikt de laatste versie van Mede8er to YAMJ package:
http://www.mede8erforum.com/index.php?topic=1128.msg6666#msg6666

En het template van Mario in dit handige pakketje:
http://www.mede8erforum.com/index.php?topic=1128.msg6918#msg6918

Nederlandse omschrijvingen krijg je automatisch via YAMJ als je deze aanpassing maakt:

Veel plezier ermee.

And for all those others who cannot read Dutch.... I am just explaining over here howto get Dutch descriptions with the nice mede8er YAMJ package. See the added example.

groeten,
